Great dog!

My question is, though, in reference to the writing. Why would a snake "slither up" to a human?

So there is truth to the whole “small, but fierce” thing.

Because a snake doesnt have legs to walk on over?

Maybe the birdbath was the snake’s hunting territory? and didn’t want competition?

Now she prances about.

Such a great, hero, dog story to then be ruined. Couldn't they have said that the dog now leaps and jumps just fine now?

Prancing - that's so gay...

But it is a Chihuahua. We’re not talking about a Pit Bull or a Bulldog. :-)

Michael Vick would like to sign the little guy up. Lacks size, but it’s the size of the fight in the dog that count, says Mike.

Lucky pup, I’ve seen bigger dogs die before I could help them.
